Clearing the sock TX queue in sk_set_socket() might cause unexpected out-of-order transmit when called from sock_orphan(), as outstanding packets can pick a different TX queue and bypass the ones already queued. This is undesired in general. More specifically, it breaks the in-order scheduling property guarantee for device-offloaded TLS sockets. Remove the call to sk_tx_queue_clear() in sk_set_socket(), and add it explicitly only where needed.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
